I sympathise. My wife got writer's block.
It struck about three weeks ago. She sat down to write her shopping list and a half hour later I heard her crying softly. I asked her what's wrong. She shook her head and said, "My mind's gone blank. I can't think what to write."
I asked her what she's written already, but there was nothing except the title "Shopping List" across the top of the paper.
At first it didn't seem like a big deal, but after a couple of days we began to run low on essentials like milk, bread, toilet rolls and chocolate biscuits. But we didn't panic. We were both confident that she would get over it and everything would be okay.
I tried getting her to just do an outline first, you know, major headings like meat, veg, cleaning materials, but she's never been one to outline. She prefers to let it just flow onto the page. She talked about left-brain/right-brain stuff that was beyond me. (My first wife used to outline and never suffered a block, but -- of course -- I couldn't mention that.)
I heard that some people write better in the mornings, get up an hour early while it's quiet and there are no distractions, but that hasn't helped. I came down and found her running the hoover around, with wet cheeks. Afternoons, evenings, no difference.
I suggested that she starts small. Instead of writing the whole shopping list, maybe just put together a list of ingredients for a chocolate sponge cake. To her credit she was up for the challenge, but it just wouldn't come.
I asked her to try writing something else, like a sick note. Blocked, and broken.
We got beyond hungry. I was out of suggestions and losing weight. In the end I knew it was hopeless, that I couldn't spend the rest of my life with her like this, so I broke it to her yesterday morning that we're through. I suggested that she should make a list of her things, and I'll do the same with mine, and we can argue about the stuff we both want later. Would you believe it, she sat down to write her list and the words flowed. Left-brain, right-brain, front-brain, rear-brain, whatever. The blockage is gone and she's writing again. We're still parting, of course - who knows when she might block again? But for now she's writing and her smile is back, and that's the main thing.
